I believe there are a few proposals of integrations of different open source review systems into OSM, but they haven’t been finalized yet.
Totally agree this is the number one thing missing from open source maps rn, and it should be top priority years ago.
Not sure what you mean, you might have to open up an issue and post a video.
Yes, thx to MV-GH for that fix.
You can’t simply say “we must assume” as evidence.
Okay yeah you definitely didn’t read it. Large sections in that doc just before that are on phone number identifiers, NSLs, and 5-eyes countries, the US goverment pushing signal in privacy spaces… literally the reasons why signal isn’t trustworthy. Unless you can tell me what an NSL is, then I’ll assume you didn’t read it.
While there may be other US government requests they are not alllwed to disclose, they were legally required to provide the same information to the courts, and we can see what they provided.
Did you ignore the large section on NSLs? These come with a gag order, meaning its illegal for signal to notify their users about them being spied on.
In fact, they implemented “Sealed sender” in 2018 where they are not able to see who the message is being sent to.
This is a “just trust me” from signal, since neither of us have access to their centralized DB, but you also ignored two paragraphs down, where it showed that with message timestamps and recipient information, this would be trivial to find the real sender of a message, regardless of sealed sender. Again, actually open source software can’t say “just trust me” like signal can, we actually have to show code to prove it, and let people run that code in a private manner.
And sure, while the US government funds Signal, you know who else endorses it? Edward fucking Snowden. If anyone knows about secure messaging, it’s the man that physically removes the microphone and camera from his phones before using them.
Elon musk and jack dorsey also endorse signal. An endorsement means nothing, especially for centralized software based in a 5-eyes country.
Read the linked doc, because it’s clear you didn’t.
Signal is a centralized, US-based service which requires your phone number (thus your real identity, IE name and address), has social networking graphs of everyone you talk to, and must forward that information to the US government when asked, as well as (by law) not tell you that they’ve been asked to do so. During the Obama era, 60 NSLs were issued for this private information every single day.
People overlook its privacy concerns for the same reason they do with apple: it has a shiny interface and is easy to use, and makes people very attached to it. Behind all that, is a surveillance network that its creators have explicitly said they do not want it to be able to run in a decentralized, private manner.
It has a long history of privacy offenses below (such as refusing to publish its server’s source code for years, its reliance on other US tech services (amazon, google), US-government funding, and a US-defense-tank friendly administration) which get ignored or shouted down by many of those above. See the article below.
Pretty much any alternative is better, as long as its not hosted in a five-eyes country, and especially if it doesn’t require phone numbers or real identities like signal does.
I personally have been using SimpleX for friends and real life contacts, and Matrix for larger more anonymous group chats.
5m seems about right. Lemmy’s from scratch builds are ~3.5m on a fast machine, and we have ~60k lines of code, and are using some with large libraries with lots of features enabled.
But you really should only ever have to do a from scratch build either at the beginning, or when you deploy. When developing, your IDE should only ever really run check or clippy, which should take seconds at most.
We use renovate for dep updates (for lemmy-ui), and a self-hosted woodpecker CI for lemmy.
CI is imo the more dangerous way people are linking their projects to github.
You can use rust and still use the GPL.
Looks like they’ve all already been banned here a while ago. Thanks for the heads up.
Thx for reporting btw.
You can’t download the entire history in one go, but you can copy the link of the post, and put it in the search bar. It should then be cached locally.
Minimo launcher is my new fave. Its simple, decreases addiction, and surpasses Olauncher in features.
I wrote up a preliminary thing cause I got bored today, lmk if you have any suggestions:
Like you said, it’s hash based, so the first time someone posts a video, you just download that from YouTube official and check the hash, no?
Yep, that’d be the case. But also for that service at least, it only stores currently active / well-seeded torrents. And the main issue is that people aren’t creating and seeding youtube videos as torrents. That would require some effort and a push from the datahoarder-type communities to start doing that.
When a user submits a new association between a Magnet Link and a YouTube tag, what verifies that that’s actually the appropriate file?
In one sense, its not really a problem, since torrents are static data. Incorrect files would not only look wrong (and not be seeded as a result), but have different hashes than the youtube ones. But the service which hosts / shares these magnet links would need to source the uploaders, so that their torrents could be removed if it turns out they’re spam.
I run a csv-based torrent service, but after many years, I’ve been the only one to really contribute to the data. There the process of adding data is tracked via pull requests. Any other service though which allows ppl to upload magnet links / torrent files would need to have a login system / tracking to prevent spammers.
I like this idea, but I wish someone would create a torrent-based project based on yt-dlp, and in particular a browser plugin that checks a torrent search site or index to see if that youtube video torrent exists.
Internet archive isn’t as fault-tolerant as torrents, and also wouldn’t be able to handle so many massive files.
Yep. Dsub is pretty much in feature-complete, maintenance-mode, that is years out of date and hasn’t even updated to material 3 UI’s which the others have.
I check the others every few months or so, but they’re all still either buggy or missing so many features compared to dsub, that I have to switch back.
No. If you only listen with one device tho, no problem. Then just mark it finished it audiobookshelf when you’re done.
Use audiobookshelf for audiobooks.
